Dear Parents and Carers

Children’s Mental Health Week

We started off the week by watching Inside Out 2 and discussing our emotions. We talked about the feelings some of us find difficult but discussed the fact that no matter what the feeling, at times, they are perfectly normal feelings to be having and it is how we manage those feelings that matters the most.

As I was walking back to my room at the end of that day, Albert in Year 2 stated that he was feeling jealous of a child because they had been chosen to take something from the special treat box. Jo-Jo then
reminded him that he had just received a merit and although a merit wasn’t a thing, it was just as important. Jo-Jo also continued with the fact that the feeling of jealousy was perfectly normal as we had
talked about this. Albert’s response to this was so lovely and it made me so proud because sometimes I
wonder whether the children are truly listening to me and on this ocassion they were! These are the
children of St Mary’s and what great adults they will make in the future.

Questionnaire regarding After School Clubs / Holiday Clubs

Further to the Parentmail message sent out yesterday, the google form for this is still open. Thank you to
all the parents that have already completed the form. Please see the link below. We need as many of you
in our school community to complete the form so we have a better understanding of what is working and
what can be improved.

Thank you for your support with this.
